Genius One Second Remembers "→Net.", providing you with wonderful novels to read.

He scored 0 points on the first attempt, and this was the first time Qiu Hengyang encountered this situation.

After the bird died, a gameover interface popped up, recording the score of this time and the best score, both of which were 0. However, there is a ranking below the score, which shows that Qiu Hengyang's current ranking is "--", obviously the score is too low to be included in the ranking.

In addition, Qiu Hengyang noticed that at the top of the interface, a quarter of the screen was blank, with three words written on it: "advertising space".

Qiu Hengyang nodded, these three words changed his impression of the No. 7 designer a little bit.

Qiu Hengyang is the founder of Hengyou.com, and has been active in the front line of game development, so he pays special attention to the game's profit model and profitability.

Many uninitiated designers have a problem, that is, they don't consider how to make money when designing games.

In fact, what is the best way to make money for a game, the designer should think clearly from the very beginning.

For this kind of casual game, is the download paid? Or built-in ads? Different charging strategies have a great impact on the game itself.

This designer knows to leave an "advertising space" here, which shows that he has this awareness, which is much stronger than those designers who are trying to make ends meet.

Tap the screen again and the game starts again.

This time Qiu Hengyang was already prepared, and kept clicking on the screen. As a result, the flight trajectory of this stupid bird was too difficult to control. Qiu Hengyang flew over two water pipes by luck, and fell headfirst on the third water pipe.

"Nimma!"

Qiu Hengyang refused to accept, and Qiu Hengyang wanted to come again.

Five minutes later, Qiu Hengyang had died dozens of times.

There is no way, this game is too easy to die, even if you play it with full concentration, it is very likely that you will overturn in three or four seconds.

And after you die, click again to start again. You don't even need to think about it, and you have already played a lot without knowing it.

Qiu Hengyang's best score is 12, which is already a score that can only be obtained by working hard on breastfeeding.

After trying more than a dozen times, Qiu Hengyang finally got his score to 14, and felt that he was a little confused.

However, Qiu Hengyang noticed that he had suddenly become No. 6 in the ranking on the game-ending interface.

Qiu Hengyang tried to click, and found that a ranking list popped up, arranged from high to low according to the score.

Of course, the names on the leaderboard are all in the form of the tourist xxxx. After all, it is impossible for Chen Mo to ask every player to fill in the user name from the beginning, which will greatly affect the game experience.

However, you can freely modify your name on the leaderboard interface.

Qiu Hengyang scrolled down and couldn't help being shocked. There were 543 people in the entire list!

There are only 700 players in total, and more than 500 people have played this little game? This is simply against the sky! How can it be

Qiu Hengyang originally thought that most people would not be interested in this game, but he did not expect that there are many more people who like such a moth game than he imagined.

Qiu Hengyang couldn't help feeling a little complacent. More than 500 people ranked sixth. This result is quite worthy of showing off!

Qiu Hengyang clicked on his username and changed it to his real name.

He scrolled down first, and found that the leaderboard was still changing, it seemed to be refreshed every five to ten seconds, which was quite frequent.

As a result, seeing the names of people on the leaderboard keep going up and down, Qiu Hengyang really had a feeling of "this game is very lively".

Turning up again, Qiu Hengyang was shocked, because the first place in the leaderboard was impressively 47 points!

Nima!

Qiu Hengyang wanted to die. How did he do it? Such a perverted game could score 47 points? Are you hanging up

The top few didn't change their names, probably haven't discovered this function yet.

Qiu Hengyang is obviously not convinced, what's more, he only has 14 points now, and he is only temporarily ranked sixth, and he may be overtaken at any time.

"Play for another five minutes, and then try another game."

Qiu Hengyang turned off the leaderboard and started fighting again.

Soon, ten minutes are up, and the effect of the super focuser ends.

"It's such an inexplicable game... I've been playing it for so long, Nima."

A middle-aged man wearing glasses quit "flappybird", and a prompt box popped up on the interface: "Would you like to recommend this game to others?"

The middle-aged uncle hesitated for a moment, and clicked "Recommend".

The specific reason is that it is not good to say anything, probably because of the mentality of "I can't let me be abused alone".

So far, the leaderboard on "flappybird" has reached 589 people, and there is still an upward trend.

This is because people have a herd mentality, and some viewers know each other in private, and they are comparing each other whose score is higher; moreover, the viewers can see other people's screens, seeing so many people playing this game After the bird game, some viewers who were not affected by the super focuser were also attracted.

After the failure of the super focuser, more than half of the players quit the game, but only a small number of players chose "not recommended", and the rest of the players chose "recommended".

As for the remaining players... Of course they are still scoring points like crazy.

Lin Hai noticed that Shi Huazhe sitting next to him was not looking well, and asked with concern: "What's the matter, are you feeling unwell?"

Shi Huazhe shook his head: "Oh, it's okay."

Lin Hai felt that Shi Huazhe's gaze was flickering, and he was still hiding it, so he couldn't help being a little curious.

As a result, he inadvertently glanced at Shi Huazhe's screen, and found that it was the score panel of "flappybird": "This time score: 4, best score: 4."

Lin Hai hurriedly turned his head away, almost laughing out loud, it turned out that Shi Huazhe was angry about this matter. Indeed, after playing for a full ten minutes, the best score was only 4 points, and he couldn't even rank in the top 200 on the leaderboard, which would make anyone angry.

Lin Hai didn't ask any more questions.

The experience game session continued, and the whole session lasted for an hour, and only a little over ten minutes had passed.

Among the 700 viewers, nearly 600 people have played "flappybird", but only a small part of these people are still persisting, and the rest are playing other games.

Chen Mo wasn't worried either. When the host introduced the game before, he already had a rough idea of the level of the other participating games, which were basically unsightly.

Except for one or two games that are of decent quality, Chen Mo doesn't like the other games at all. Want to compare it with "flappybird"

Well, let's put it this way. The graphics, amount of resources, and richness of content of these games are all over the top of "flappybird", but is it really longer than the game's duration and speed of transmission

I'm not targeting anyone, what I mean is that everyone here is the five scum of war.

Sure enough, after experiencing other games, the vast majority of viewers quickly closed and opened "flappybird" again.

It's not about how fun this game is, it's mainly for scoring points!

How can I say that this game is poisonous, after playing it for a while, it really feels boring, boring, and very masochistic, but as long as you turn it off for five minutes, you will want to turn it on again.

Seeing the audience's reaction, Chen Mo felt confident. The only thing he worries about now is the opinion of the three judges.

If the three judges agree, just give yourself a no? That is also no joke!

However, as long as there is one judge who approves of his game, then the first place must be his own! For mobile phone users, please visit m.reading for a better reading experience.
